The General Assembly of North Carolina
authorized the establishment of graduate work in
the liberal arts and professions at NCCU in 1939.
Receiving approval from the University of North
Carolina Board of Governors in 1995, the Master
of Science in Earth Sciences has a relatively
short history. The first M.S. degree in Earth
Sciences was conferred in 1998. While the
degree program was established in the
Department of Geography and Earth Sciences, it
became a part of the Environmental, Earth and
Geospatial Sciences Department in 2005 when
the Environmental Science and the Geography
and Earth Sciences departments merged.
